Absolutely amazing Amazon experience!
Kelwin was super friendly and made the whole tour unforgettable. We explored the Amazon River and rainforest and saw an incredible variety of wildlife that I was able to interract — anaconda, baby anteater, mata mata turtle, toucan, baby capybara and monkeys. I even got to feed macaws, green parakeet and the giant arapaima. I also saw dolphins, electric eels, aligators, baby caimans, piranhas, and sloth. Highly recommended, especially if you’re short on time — you can experience the full atmosphere of the Amazon in just one day!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much friend Daniel Erdei for choice our tourist company,for your jungle experience.

Native Aquatic Species,Jungle hike & Animal Rescue Center-Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Iquitos.
How much does Native Aquatic Species,Jungle hike & Animal Rescue Center-Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $160 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Iquitos usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Native Aquatic Species,Jungle hike & Animal Rescue Center-Tour take?
+
Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Iquitos is not rushed.
Is Native Aquatic Species,Jungle hike & Animal Rescue Center-Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 27 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Iquitos, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Native Aquatic Species,Jungle hike & Animal Rescue Center-Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Native Aquatic Species,Jungle hike & Animal Rescue Center-Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Native Aquatic Species,Jungle hike & Animal Rescue Center-Tour?
+
Around 9 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Iquitos can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Iquitos and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Native Aquatic Species,Jungle hike & Animal Rescue Center-Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Iquitos within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Iquitos?
+
On Outty we rank every Iquitos experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Pacaya Samiria Mystical 3 Days, 4 days 3 nights on the banks of the Amazon River, Amazing Jungle 3Days 2Nights - Amazon Wonder Expeditions. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Iquitos?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Iquitos?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
